As Canada continues to recover from the pandemic, employers are actively looking to fill hundreds of thousands of vacant positions in all sectors across the country.

We need to use this fact to ensure that businesses and employers have access to the skilled workers they need to grow and succeed. Souce: IRCC news room

Since the depths of the pandemic recession, the government’s focus on jobs—on keeping Canadians employed and on keeping their employers afloat—has ensured Canada’s economy has made a rapid and strong recovery. Canada has seen the best jobs recovery in the G7, having recovered 112 per cent of the jobs lost, and with an unemployment rate that sits at just 5.5 per cent—close to the 5.4 per cent low in 2019 that was Canada’s best in five decades.Souce: IRCC news room

Across the globe, millions of people are displaced and in need of safety and protection.

In so doing, they recognize refugees’ skills, experience and talent, in addition to their need for protection. Souce: IRCC news room
